With most carriers, you can unlock it for free if you own the device longer than 1 year. I did this with mine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] rubledub:
i get it done FREE EVERYTIME

the easiest and FREE way to do this is call t-mo and tell the csr that your about to take a trip to europe (or somewhere foreign)

bs them about how much you love/need YOUR phone and wanna just pick up a

cheap pay as you go service using another sim while your over seas.

but you've heard "rumors" that the other sims will not work.

they will try to upsell you some international plan but just say no.

after some urging they will give up the procedure and the codes!

DONE IT FOR FRIENDS ON ALL DIFFERENT PHONES AND CARRIERS RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX!!! the gift of gab is GREAT.

much luck guys!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] SL:
The turnaround time with them is very fast.

I know of success by others as well.

I chatted with them on mine, but we both agrfeed that we would end up with the same number i got from t-mobile and others which wont unlock my phone
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] SL:
Here is a question to you expert.

1) I bought a phone (ebay) that could not be unlocked no matter what

2) Did received the code to unlock from t mobile and other services and they all gave the same number which will not unlock the phone.

The question becomes,

1) if it possible that the phone was permenently locked because of many attempts to unlocked by the previous owner.

2) Are there software service that can unlock the phone (instead of entering the code)

3) any ideas?

IMEI and code below that would not work...

IMEI: 3517710461xxxxx (mod edit) UNLOCK CODE: 67729639

Hey guys, I bought an "unlocked" version of MyTouch 3G, at least that's what it was supposed to be like. The phone recognizes my sim card but I'm stuck at the touch the android screeen. Touching the four corners of the screen doesn't work for skipping the setup. What do you think the problem might be?

PS: Come on guys, I realy need your help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] adavis159:
when you tap the android, does it flash but not go to the next screen?

boot into recovery with home+power and do a full wipe (data+cache)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] nos222:
It goes to the next screen, I just can't pass the registration. What I meant was that the phone can't be used without the registration. I can't turn on my wifi and when I went to my operator, they said it's locked and i need to unlock it. However, the guys i bought it from said it's already unlocked.What should I do?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TehLamz0r:
Indeed. Can you link me (PM maybe?) to the ones who helped you?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] boriskey:
just want to share my experience. I bought a used mytouch and to activate it borrowed my friend's ATT card with data plan. Once you insert the card, you will be prompted to enter unlock code.

If you already have t-mobile sim on hands (yes, prepaid togo sim works fien as well) and you use their services for 90 days, you can call them having your IMEI ready and they will unlock your mytouch for 90 days for free.

The phone does not need to be associated with the SIM card - they do not care as long as you are their existing customer even if you used different phone before

Things You'll Need:

• your T-mobile phone

• Your phone's IMEI number

• T-Mobile customer service number: 1-877-453-1304 or dial 611 from another t-mobile phone

• SIM card from another carrier

To find out your IMEI:

press the call button on your myTouch 3G and then enter *#06# on your dialpad. You will see the IMEI number pop up. Write this number down

They will ask for your email and will email the unlock code in 24 hours - (I called at 6pm and got it next morning at 9pm)

Also see this thread if you get no-service message using prepaid card after activiation showthread.php?t=748130&highlight=prepaid

IF you want to unlock permanently, the cheapest codes are on ebay - just search for "unlock code mytouch" or whatever phone you have. Starts at $8 and check feedback before you buy and buy from sellers who offer money back if the code does not work

Hope this helps!

hi here is my story unlocking my magic

first I tried htcunlocking.com but it blocked my card due to my country which is lame

then i heard about the ebay but i couldn't pay cuz paypal doesn't support my country which is more lame .. so i thought i hit a dead end

but when i read about unlock2go i thought i'd give a try and i was admired by how the process is so simple with no registration or bla bla

in less than 10 min i got the code from them and entered it and bowhaaaaaaaaa it worked :D this site is a life saver :D

yes they do .. apparently they locked mine

I can further confirm that unlock2go works great on the Mytouch 1.2

It took all of 5 mins to receive my unlock code and it was successful on the first try. I also used the $2 off coupon so it came to $17.99 total.

Now that I'm on AT&Ts network I need the right APNs

A freaking unlock code for this imei!

I need to know if there is any way out there to unlock a HTC MYtouch 3g phone for free. I don't plan on paying for a code that could possibly take two seconds to generate an unlock code. I've not been with Tmobile long enough to get the code from them and would really like to get off their network. Thank you, and merry christmas or happy holikannawaza an new year!

PS. If your smart, unlike me, with the phone coding talk, your advice would be appreciated on what to do.

NTT DoCoMo HT-03A UNLOCK

Hello, been reading your posts and maybe you can help me. I have the code to unlock my NTT DoCoMo HT-03A, but my phone does not give me the option to change my PIN CODE when you restart. Would you know what I gotta do to get my unlock code and run?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:

Ive just unlock my t-mobile mytouch 3g with unlocks2go, and it seems the code works, but im stuck on the beggining where the setup wizard appears; ive tried touching the 4 corners but nothing happends, can u guys gime a little help here please I will really appreciate.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Yeah, that doesn't work. Do you have a SIM with a data plan? If not, you either need to get one or root, but to root you'll need another Android phone to make a goldcard and use that method. If you have a SIM with data, you'll probably need to add the APN settings for that carrier.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgiron88:
does the sim card have to be a t-mobile one? and for my luck I have another android phone a g1, can you link me the way how to root please? and by the way where can I get that APN settings? thx for the reply bro

Edit: how am I suposse to root the phone if I cant even go further the setup wizard, and put the usb debugging off, to follow the superoneclick tutorial =(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
I'm pretty sure the SIM will have to be a T-Mobile unless you unlock the phone. You can find the APN settings for any carrier by searching on Google. You'll need to provide your fastboot information for the root procedures. Power the phone on holding back+power and post all the information here. Your not going to be able to use the one-click root methods, hence the reason you'll need to root using the goldcard method. Provide the fastboot info and we'll go from there.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgiron88:
the phone is already unlocked, just bought the code yesterday and everything seems working fine, I will give a shoot to the sim card method, I just need someone to have a full data/internet plan and just insert that sim card on my phone right?, and for the gold the card method, I need to have another android to create it right?, thx bro for answering all this doubts xD,
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Right and right. For the SIM just check the APN settings as mentioned before. Still going to need that fastboot info so I can get you to a proper goldcard rooting guide.

No, it may just give a SIM card error. At the sign in screen, hit menu, then wireless settings, and you can add/edit the APN settings from there.

The MyTouch devices do not have the nv_data so the only methods are those that were already mentioned. Sim unlocking the Vibrant was easy. Heck... there's an app on the Market for it! MyTouch... to date... still no way to do it without the code or an overlay card.

I accidently tried it ( didn't noticed it was for 4g) the command "gfree -f", it didn't unlock and didn't brick but since then I notice a weird thing: everytime the device goes into sleep it does not wake. only taking out battery.

Better reflash the rom...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jesusotero:
The gfree method doesn't brick the phone, but it doesn't unlock it either, as the process fails every single time, i tried with gfree 0.2, gfree 0.4, and 0.7.

If you guys want to give it a try, i can post those zips and instructions, if anyone can find other versions. post them here and i'll try without fear , hehe.

All of them fail at "Attempting to power cycle eMMC... Failed."

So any information for that specifically would help also. But all i've found is that on some phones, not all versions of gfree are supported. I also read somewhere it has to do with the radio. so if anyone has the old radio in a 32A. i'd appreciate if you could try, i'm using 6.35 radio.

Hi guys.

Right. I've got a really weird and very frustrating problem.

I had a white Xperia X10.. and was experiencing some problems with it. The person on the other end of the phone was complaining about a random banging/knocking sound that was happening every few seconds or minutes.. and also that they could hear themselves talk intermittantly.

I bared with this for a few weeks till I got fed up and sent it to Sony. They sent it back saying 'it passed all the tests', but the problem was still there!

So, I got rid of it, and bought a new black one.. and guess what.. same problem!.

Its just too coincidental that the same thing happened with 2 different phones. Also, there is only 1 person that complains about this (we're both on O2, and she's using the HTC Desire).

I first thought that it was her phone, or it was my simcard.. but it cant be, because I used my simcard in another phone for a week and there were no problems, and she's not had this problem with anyone else.

Its soo frustrating I just dont know what to do now!!

Has anyone else experienced this?
[XPERIA X10 General] miann:
